Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Mangir ND (1603-1617) coin from the Ottoman Empire is that it was one of the first coins to feature the name of the reigning sultan, Ahmed I, in the mintage. This was a departure from the traditional practice of using the name of the caliph, and marked a shift towards a more centralized and imperialistic approach to coinage.
